[OpenWrt-Devel] DD: CONFIG_BUSYBOX_DEFAULT_WGET is not set

[Daniel Dickinson]

Sorry, I've been out of the country and not had a chance to get to this. 
  I had planned to do that for the packages you previously requested 
changes for that I had proposed a unified symlink handling solution to 
deal with what is rather a mess at the moment, but have been obviously 
rather busy with travelling and work-related activities.

Regards,

Daniel
